Derby Venue: IFA’s in Limbo

Kolkata: Mohun Bagan and East Bengal both will get 25 percent of the ticket sales of the Calcutta Football League derby exhibition match.

Mohun Bagan and East Bengal both will get 25 percent of the ticket sales of the Calcutta Football League derby exhibition match. IFA officials disclosed it on Wednesday. Now the main question is the venue. Mohun Bagan doesn’t want to play in Siliguri. On the other hand, Mohun Bagan ground could not get the police permission for a derby match. However, East Bengal has no scruples to play in Mohun Bagan venue. In this situation, the bait is high for Barasat stadium. Those who are Maidan-centric they argued that the Barasat stadium is not in proper condition to host the derby. So, where they could really fix the derby match, on this question IFA is now in limbo.
